Bernard J. Bordonet Quote

"If a state militia guarantee rather than an individual right of citizens to keep and bear arms were the purpose of the second Amendment, it would have been totally unnecessary and irrelevant to include any guarantee of “the right of the people to keep and bear arms,” since by its very nature a militia is necessarily an armed force and without arms it would be impossible to carry out its constitutional functions of suppressing insurrections and repelling invasions."

Tell that to Hillary, Obama, and the Brady bunch.  -- jim k, Austin, Tx
But just one more accurate observation addressing a myriad of unconstitutional concepts used to enhance the limitation and removal of inalienable rights.  -- Mike, Norwalk
Every gun owner knows this. Most city-dwellers do not since they have been conditioned to believe that guns are the problem and have had guns kept out of their hands their entire lives by local laws.  -- E Archer, NYC
